Not bad, not a favorite. Standard Hagen-series plotline; their respective backgrounds...actually detracted from the story, for me. And Shannon is a little too good at beating up on herself to make her someone I want to be around. Derek's walking on eggshells so much that...I don't know, neither the romance nor the suspense story managed to keep my attention, partly because it was switching back and forth so hard. Alexi is mildly interesting, hope we see some more of him. And the villain was a complete surprise to me. Eh, it's OK. But I think I'll stop reading Hagen for a little while, and go read some other things until the plotline is a trifle less familiar.
